Italian word
profitto
profit, gain; benefit, advantage
Looks like
profit
financial gain; money made after costs
⚠️ The trap
Largely equivalent, but in formal Italian accounting the term for net profit is 'utile' (or 'utile netto'). 'Profitto' is broader and includes non-financial benefit (trarre profitto = to benefit from something).
To say "financial gain; money made after costs" in Italian:
profitto (profit); utile (net profit in accounting)
"profitto" in English means:
profit, gain; benefit, advantage
Example
"L'azienda ha realizzato un profitto record quest'anno."
"The company made a record profit this year."
